ya thats a nice tool, but it would take up half my shop. have fun guys.

-- Roper - Master of sawdust-

I am thinking about getting one. You sure got a high quality one. Does it have a fine sanding platen?

-- Oldworld, Fair Oaks, Ca

John, It comes with two platens . Roper , I had to tear out the only table in the main shop to find room. Chris , this machine will allow checks to be cashed that my body has already written -literally .

How wide an item can you slide through there, Rob? Also, is that a 10” vacuum line? 12”?

-- Gary, Los Angeles, video game animator

Power on site limited us to 37 inches , and I think the hose is 6 inches. Next week I will post some of the big counter tops I am running through the machine in pieces tomorrow – they look like bowling alleys—LOL

Wow Rob
That’s a outstanding new toy to add to your already great shop and mill.

Oh yea!..these machines are awesome!!.. In a perfect world they would be in every woodworkers shop..I have access to a 52” 4 plaxen wide belt machine that I use often.. Its a real blessing to have one.. Great purchase Rob!!

-- Randall Child

Beautiful machine Rob. I have a Jet 16-32 unit (for my work is fine) and it is a huge labor saver.

-- Whether You Think You Can or You Think You Can't, YOU ARE RIGHT!!!

I’d have to start robbing banks to outfit my shop with stuff like that!

-- Eric

Freakin’ Sweet!

I have been dreaming of a wide belt over the dual headed drum sander I have.

I remember what life was like without the sander I have now. Now I want more!

-- Carl Rast, Pelion, SC

Ohhhhhhh the lifestyles of the Rich and Famous. That’s a very impressive looking piece of machinery.
Not practical for the home workshop guys like most of us on here but well worth the money in a commercial application I’m sure.
PS: You forgot to post the address we can all ship our projects to for sanding..:)

Just came over to look at again-Oh crap I just drooled on myself.

Hi Todd , I have to admit this thing is spoiling me ! In a day or two I will post some of the counter tops I am using this thing on .

Hi Rob,
Congratulations, You definitely have a fine machine.
I have an old model sandya uno 37”. Old and rickety but still hanging in there. Your new model sure has a lot of buttons on it. Mine has to be hand cranked to raise and lower it. LOL
I use it for so many things I can’t believe how I ever got along without it.
Good Luck with it, I hope it serves you well.

That’s one heck of a machine. I think like most, I’d need a bigger shop and more power to house that thing.

most folk shop with thier wife

folks who go shopping for that bring thier banker and both lawyers

roman,
the carefully crafted pre-purchase presentation to my wife included references to how it would help the overall economy, it would leave me more time to spend with her, my hands will less resemble bear paws, and the clincher being I had to get SOMETHING for her birthday, which is this week. Suffice to say, it was not an easy sell, but preparation IS everything.

hold on, i have to wipe the drool off the screen, i’ll get back to you

-- Sean Buffalo, New York

sweetest toy to date…..aside from a nice boat?

turns days of sanding into one hour…..........and the hour is money well spent

if it were not for friends who own one, I would be in a world of hurt!

Congrats
